What is Evaporative Cooling?

Evaporative cooling is a completely natural way of producing refreshing cool air and only runs at 10% of the running cost of air conditioning.

As an Authorised Installer of leading industry brand EcoCooling, SMARTech Cooling incorporate the latest and most advanced technology to deliver energy-efficient evaporative cooling.

What’s more, evaporative cooling is the same price to install (although it can often be cheaper), can make use of existing ducting, and is comparable in purchase price to standard air conditioning units. There are three typical methods which can be employed to cool these buildings; ventilation, evaporative cooling or a refrigeration based air conditioning system; with the choice of system having a dramatic effect on the total carbon emissions of the buildings.

Evaporative cooling cools without the need for refrigerants. Instead a direct evaporative cooler, uses wetted filter pads, which cools air by bringing it into contact with water.

Water evaporates into the air stream and cools, following the principle of the ‘wind-chill effect’. Lots of modern buildings require cooling for the comfort of the occupants or to protect the equipment/processes they contain. Evaporative cooling improves equipment performance and reliability, whilst at the same time providing more pleasant working environment.

Evaporative cooling systems are also extremely efficient delivering 35 kW of cooling for 2.4kW of electricity (24p per hour to operate). An evaporative cooling installation typically consumes less than 10% of the electricity of an equivalently rated refrigeration based cooling system. Return on investment is usually between 2-5 years for industrial systems and can be as low as 6 months for environments where the cooling is required 24/7 e.g data centres.

The evaporative cooling system is a very popular alternative to traditional refrigeration air conditioning for many reasons. It is incredibly cost effective, and could save you over 90% in cooling costs and uses just 10% of the energy.
